Match Thread Manchester United v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[BlueToff]

We're sitting far too deep. Yes, United pressing us well but James does not need to be on the edge of our own box.

Made up I have half of you numptys blocked

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Davies and Gomes aren't going to find the consistent forward penetrating balls we need here.

James is a bit too advanced and isolated.

We've only got a threat down the left through Digne and even Richarlison is well off his game.

Iwobi

Maybe. Badly miss Allan for that too.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Not competing enough here, letting them stroll around now

 

[Jim Hopper]

Sadly it looks like we don’t know what to do with the ball. There’s absolutely nothing coming from that right hand side it’s all down the left, all predictable stuff which Utd are easily dealing with.

Look at how they use every Avenue of the pitch to create chances.

 

[Bluerover]

My hopes are dying here. Do they need a map to find where the goal is. Embarrassing.

 

[ForeverEverton]

Neville made the point earlier that we had a free kick in the Utd half, where does it end up? With Olson... NOT GOOD ENOUGH!!!

 

[Dublin blue 75]

Keane struggling tonight. Should have played Mina

 

[BlueToff]

Performances like this are why the media always write us off and talk us down btw

We give them no reason not to

United haven't even been that good but we've absolutely bottled it after a decent start

Still an hour or so to go if you include injury time etc like, but still, we've played like the 12th-8th side every sneering media type expects us to be thus far, especially since the goal went in

And our fans get mad when the media do just that, or say that quite rightly we should be trying to attack.

15 good minutes but we created nothing, then we've been tosh.

 

[tim cahill]

Can't see us getting anything here since we've conceded. It's all Manu.

 

[GrandOldTeam]

What’s he supposed to do when his midfielders won’t play a forward ball to him?

Go looking for the ball.

Rather than sulk.

 

[RomanReigns]

Utd wing backs are camped in our half lol

 

[Methuselah]

Nearly half an hour played and we haven't had a single attempt on goal.

 

[GwladysBlue]

Get Mina on, Godfrey to LB and Digne into Richarlison’s position.
